  1. CC is getting pummeled by the Stros tonight.
  2. Don Baylor, hitting coach for the Angels broke his leg catching a ceremonial first pitch from Vlad Guerrero on Opening Day. It was sad to see him getting helped to his feet and then buckling after getting up. As a player, Baylor's physique seemed as if it were carved out of granite. He was such a strong guy, and he was tough too. One of his specialties was getting hit by pitches. He would take the opposing pitcher's best heat off any part of his body without the slightest of a wince or flinch. You almost felt sorry for the baseball. It was sad to see him looking old, hurt and very mortal.
  3. Ready to go!!! I hope that Victorino is just sitting out for a precaution.
  4. Opening Day is an official holiday in my home. I haven't worked on opening day in years. My other holiday is Super Bowl Monday.
  5. I hope the Yankees don't scoop him up.
  6. This really surprised me. He gave up 0 earned runs in 8 outings. I thought he was pitching very well and that he would have been a great late inning option.
  7. I would go to a game at any ballpark. LOL!! I have been to the Coliseum. I got first bae box seats and I was shocked at how far I was from the action. At the Giants ballpark, you are closer in the upper deck and they have the same fries!
  8. Yep, it is an imprecise science at best.
  9. If the Cubs kept a few of their first round picks like Josh Donaldson and Andrew Cashner, maybe they wouldn't be sucking it so hard.
  10. He blew a first round pick. It is never a good thing to blow your firsdt pick. Other guys were picked after Vitek that made or will make the majors. Christian Yellich would have been nice. Overall, it might have been a good draft, but blowing your first pick is still a black mark.
  11. A first round bust. Black mark for the GM. Should have had Clint Eastwood scout hi.
  12. Baseline seats at the Coliseum are not close to the action at all. Bleacher seats at Fenway are closer to the game.
  13. A700Hitter doesn't fit into boxes.
  14. He was clueless on how to stop the bleeding. If anything, he contributed to the debacle. I love Tito, but he was a big part of the problem that season. He was never a goodgame tactician, but in 2011 he lost the clubhouse too.
  15. More recently, Sabathia opted out of his Yankee contract and declared free agency and the re-signed him. He didn't leave the Guardians. They traded him to the Brewers, and that was back in 2008. Greinke also was also traded to the Brewers before he hit FA,
  16. Of the pitchers in the list only Greinke and Johan left their team, and only one since 2008. The trend has been for teams to lock these guys down and keep them from leaving.
